I waa In the shipping roorne of the Enterprise Manufacturing Com ny. of Augusta, Oi several tSays i.r.rf -well-known ma chinery ; arent to . an ' Observer re porter yesterday. ' "and I few,; there something that made me- open wide my eye. There were pile and piles or eroode, heaped ' every wnere. " " bearing strange- addressee, ome being marked to Smyrna some to veirac some to- Constantinople and others to unheard-of jcltiea , of Aala and - 'Aala Minor. Nothing was. en,,,es to the JTer Eaet. the present for. - elm market of American cotton - goods. ; But . there were stacks of ease ready to be ahtpped to Aalatie - Turkey, a market which heretofore haa been largely controlled by the " English and Continental mills. -A very Interesting story was . (old of how thU had come about 1 Three "years ago.' -the Enterprise, with one or two other Augusta mllla. 4 sent a representative over 10 won : aiaotlnople for the purpose of ad vrtllnr their eooda. This repreeen' ' , tatlvo carried with him pome l.tOO 'tiead-eada. each bearing the addreaa - of the producing mill. Tncee ne car. ; Hd to the Jobbers in all the Turk- lab cltiea. This agent expiainea me auperlor quality of the good, spoke " t, the Importance of the American '"' factories and asked that samples be " f kept for future reference." Being Molly aoed fellow, efficient and up-to date In "hie work. .this representative made a fine Imoreaslon upon the , Jobbers, ' who did not fall to apeak tn th smaller commission mm about he Aucusta mllla. In the couree of a 'abort time. - orders came - to the " 4nterprtae and other mllla foe one '.' and. two caeea each of aheetlnga and drills to be shipped clear lo Aala - Lfcllnor, These ordera were carefully .looked after, and were ahlpped with the.- nrnner eXDedltlon. On each piece of goods sent over, the name of the mill waa printed and run pnr- - tlrulara were alven. ihowina how ' ialmilar roods might be ordered . Thla waa done no that the smaller ,'. merchants might order direct rrom '.America and thus save the mlddle " (nan's profit. After the first small - ahlpmenta were received and In 4' epected, the Turkish Jobbers dupll- 'rated their ordera. doubling and In -.many cases quadrupling their else, Thla continued until now the Knter ' !vrlse. as well as the other mllla in , the association, sell most of their t aooda to Turkey. Hlght drafts on - . London bank are attached to the bills i ' bf ladtna and are forwarded with - the shipment. This etpodltes the payment, which seldom requires ."more than 20 days. The process .too. la absolutely safe. The commis sion merchant's usual 4 per cent.. . together with the discount and other fees, are thus saved and there ' ft a profit on every hand. " "The orders are frequently very ' large. Some time ago an order was received for 10.500 rases of sheet- ' Inn and drills. The output of the mills la said to be sold for a year ahead." MIL 30V.

I learned of thla and forthwith secured an at- tachment on It. When he came to Charlotte a few days ago. I placed a copy In the hands of n constable for service. The result Is that 1 se cured the payment of my bill. "I wouldn't take tit, for It. 1 fbeat the fellow at his own game after 11 years of trouble. 1 have -had that btil but about 10 minutes and yet it has given me more down right satisfaction than imy other that haa ever passed through my hand."
